After  deliberation,  it  is  ordered,  adjudged,  and 
decreed : 

Section  1.  That  in  and  prior  to  the  year  1899 
there  were  twenty  corporations  organized,  respec¬ 
tively,  under  the  laws  of  various  States  engaged  in 
commerce  in  petroleum  and  its  products,  either 
among  the  States,  or  in  the  Territories,  or  with  for¬ 
eign  nations,  and  these  corporations  held  a  ma¬ 
jority  of  the  stock  and  controlled  the  business  and 
operations  of  many  other  corporations  engaged  in 
that  commerce ;  that  one  of  these  corporations  was 
the  Standard  Oil  Company  of  New  Jersey,  here¬ 
after  called  the  Standard  Company,  which  had  a 
capital  stock  of  $10,000,000.00 ;  that  since  the  year 
1890  the  defendants  named  in  section  two  of  this 
decree  have  entered  into  and  are  carr3dng  out  a 
combination  or  conspiracy  in  pursuance  whereof 
about  the  year  1899  they  caused  the  capital  stock 
of  the  Standard  Company  to  be  increased  to 
$100,000,000.00,  caused  a  majority  of  the  stock  of 
the  nineteen  companies,  and  the  power  to  control 
them,  and  to  manage  their  trade,  and  the  power  to 
control  the  corporations  which  they  controlled  and 


3 


to  manage  their  trade,  to  be  vested  in  and  held  by 
the  Standard  Company  in  exchange  for  its  stock 
which  was  issued  to  the  former  holders  of  the  stock 
of  the  nineteen  companies,  and  caused  the  Standard 
Company  ever  since  to  control  all  these  corpora¬ 
tions,  hereafter  called  the  subsidiary  corporations, 
and  to  manage  their  trade  without  competition 
among  themselves  as  the  trade  and  business  of  a 
single  person;  that  this  combination  or  conspiracy 
is  a  combination  or  conspiracy  in  restraint  of  trade 
and  commerce  in  petroleum  and  its  products  among 
the  several  States,  in  the  Territories,  and  with  for¬ 
eign  nations,  such  as  an  act  of  Congress  approved 
July  2,  1890,  26  Stat.,  209,  c.  647  (U.  S.  Comp. 
Stat.,  1901,  page  3200),  entitled  ^^An  act  to  protect 
trade  and  commerce  against  unlawful  restraints 
and  monopolies,”  declares  to  be  illegal.

9 


direction,  supervision,  or  influence  over  the  acts

effect  the  combination  adjudged  illegal  hereby,  and

restrain  commerce  in  petroleum  or  its  products 
among  the  States,  or  in  the  Territories,  or  with 


10 


foreign  nations,  or  to  prolong  the  unlawful  monop¬

of  July  2, 1890,  either  (1)  by  the  use  of  liquidating 
certificates,  or  other  written  evidences,  of  a  stock 
interest  in  two  or  more  potentially  competitive 
parties  to  the  illegal  combination,  by  causing  the 
conveyance  of  the  physical  property  and  business 
of  any  of  said  parties  to  a  potentially  competitive 
party  to  this  combination,  by  causing  the  convey¬ 
ance  of  the  property  and  business  of  two  or  more  of 
the  potentially  competitive  parties  to  this  combina¬ 
tion  to  any  party  thereto,  by  placing  the  control  of 
any  of  said  corporations  in  a  trustee,  or  group  of 
trustees,  by  causing  its  stock  or  property  to  be 
held  by  others  than  its  equitable  owners,  or  by  any 
similar  device;  or  (2)  by  making  any  express  or 
implied  agreement  or  arrangement  together,  or 
one  with’ another,  like  that  adjudged  illegal  hereby, 
relative  to  the  control  or  management  of  any  of 
said  corporations,  or  the  price  or  terms  of  pur¬ 
chase,  or  of  sale,  or  the  rates  of  transportation  of 
petroleum  or  its  products  in  interstate  or  interna¬ 
tional  commerce,  or  relative  to  the  quantities 
thereof  purchased,  sold,  transported,  or  manufac¬ 
tured  by  any  of  said  corporations  which  will  have  a 
like  effect  in  restraint  of  commerce  among  the 
States,  in  the  Territories,  and  with  foreign  nations 
to  that  of  the  combination  the  operation  of  which  is 
hereby  enjoined.

of  this  decree  are  enjoined  and  prohibited,  until  the 
discontinuance  of  the  operation  of  the  illegal  com¬

among  the  States  or  in  the  Territories  of  the 
United  States.

costs  herein,  to  be  taxed  by  the  clerk  of  the  court,

the  defendants,  or  by  any  of  them,  and  a  bond  in 
the  amount  of  fifty  thousand  dollars  ($50,000.00), 
conditioned  to  operate  as  a  supersedeas,  approved 
'  by  one  of  the  circuit  judges,  is  given  within  thirty 
(30)  days  after  the  entry  of  this  decree,  then  this 
decree,  unless  reversed  or  modified,  shall  take  effect 
thirty  (30)  days  after  the  final  decision  of  this  case 
by  the  Supreme  Court  upon  the  appeal.

United  States  Circuit  Judges. 

And  whereas  certain  of  the  defendants  appealed 
from  said  decree  to  the  Supreme  Court  of  the 
United  States,  which  court,  after  duly  considering 
the  same,  did,  on  the  fifteenth  day  of  May,  1911, 


12 


order,  adjudge,  and  decree  that  the  decree  of  the 
said  Circuit  Court  in  this  cause  be  modified  as  indi¬ 
cated  in  the  opinion  of  the  said  Supreme  Court,  and 
as  so  modified,  affirmed,  the  said  Circuit  Court  to 
retain  jurisdiction  to  the  extent  necessary  to  com¬ 
pel  compliance  in  every  respect  with  its  decree. 

And  whereas  the  modification  indicated  in  the 
opinion  of  the  Supreme  Court  was  in  the  following 
language,  viz : 

We  think  that  in  view  of  the  magnitude  of 
the  interests  involved  and  their  complexity 
that  the  delay  of  thirty  days  allowed  for  exe¬ 
cuting  the  decree  was  too  short  and  should 
be  extended  so  as  to  embrace  a  period  of  at 
least  six  months.  So,  also,  in  view  of  the 
possible  serious  injury  to  result  to  the  public 
from  an  absolute  cessation  of  interstate  com¬ 
merce  in  petroleum  and  its  products  by  such 
vast  agencies  as  are  embraced  in  the  combi¬ 
nation,  a  result  which  might  arise  from  that 
,  poi'tion  of  the  decree  which  enjoined  car¬ 
rying  on  of  interstate  commerce  not  onh^  by 
the  New  Jersey  corporation,  but  by  all  the 
subsidiary  companies,  until  the  dissolution 
of  the  combination  by  the  transfer  of  the 
stocks  in  accordance  with  the  decree  should 
not  have  been  awarded. 

Our  conclusion  is  that  the  decree  below 
Avas  right  and  should  be  affirmed,  except  as 
to  the  minor  matters  concerning  AAdiich  Ave 
have  indicated  the  decree  should  be  modified. 

And  AAdiereas  the  mandate  of  the  Supreme  Court 
having  been  duly  issued  and  filed  in  the  office  of 


13 


the  clerk  of  this  court  affirming  said  judgment,
